Chapter 21: The Exorcist
South City.
Song Yan didn't expect that he had just come back from Nancheng for less than two hours, and he would run here again.
Although the mansion he is in now is closer to the suburbs of the city, and there is still some distance between it and Fangxing Academy, it is also the southern city after all.
What appeared in front of Song Yan at this time was a somewhat dilapidated mansion, which looked like it had been uninhabited for a long time, and there were few signs of people coming to clean it, and it was even a little gloomy.
This is the so-called haunted house, and three people have already died because of this, so they found the side of the six doors, and Zhou Qingqing, the head catcher of Xuanzi, led the team to investigate.
After Song Yan's Yijin Sutra broke through level 100, it was likely to bring about a spiritual improvement, and he also wanted to see what changes this improvement would have in the face of the so-called ghosts - Song Yan didn't admit it, he was just curious about the ghosts.
There are real ghosts in this world, and even the ancient Daomen still recorded the ghost cultivation inheritance, but now this inheritance is basically broken.
But there have always been a lot of ghosts and ghosts in the world, and there are even people who specialize in captive ghosts and fight against them - this is a demon monk, and only those who are ghosts are called ghost cultivators.
And Song Yan undoubtedly didn't see ghosts in the north, and the naturally generated ghosts were basically overkilled in minutes, and few foreign ghosts dared to come to Daguang Temple to find death under their noses...... It's like the southerners have never seen snow, so it's really curious!
"Senior brother, have you ever seen a ghost?" Song Yan touched the Jinggen monk next to him.
This monk is wearing a white monk's robe at this time, with a shiny bald head, and that solemn and serious eyes, he really has a bit of the posture of a monk.
Hearing his junior brother's question, Jinggen turned his head sideways and whispered, "I went out with a few senior brothers and met once...... Anyway, after reciting the Sutra of the Past Life a few times, it will be overdone, so don't panic. ”
Song Yan couldn't help but roll his eyes, the little broken soul that could be overtaken by the Afterlife Sutra was the same as the ghost thing that could already hurt people's lives?
Fortunately, I didn't expect Jinggen to do much, or in fact, Song Yan and Jinggen both belonged to supernumerary personnel, and the six doors had their own set of methods to deal with ghosts - it was not the first time that ghosts hurt people in Shangjing, and they were already familiar with the road.
Zhou Qingqing was standing in front of Jinggen at this time, talking to an old man dressed in fancy clothes, and learning the details of the incident.
The old man's surname is Li, and Zhou Qingqing calls him "Li Yuanwai", who is the owner of this house. Originally, I wanted to demolish this place in the spring of next year and turn it into an orchard, so I asked a few people to come in and clean it up first, and clean up the furniture, utensils, and the like.
As a result, there was a haunted incident that night, three subordinates disappeared directly, and several people hurriedly ran out of the house, and now they are also in a state of madness, but they keep shouting "ghost, ghost".
After listening to Li Yuanwai's narration, Zhou Qingqing comforted him a few more words, then walked back to Song Yan and the two, and said: "It sounds like an ordinary ghost, and the specific level needs to be confirmed to know, but it should be at a medium level." ”
"When the personnel arrive, let's go in together, what do the two of you think?" Zhou Qingqing looked at Song Yan and Monk Jinggen.
The Jinggen monk clasped his hands together and recited the Buddha's name: "Amitabha, everything is arranged by the Qingqing girl, and the poor monk must do his best to reduce the evil ghosts." ”
Song Yan couldn't help but turn his head to look at him, and secretly said in his heart that his senior brother had changed his strategy...... From a licking dog with a dead skin and a face, to a high-level licking dog with a warm male type?
However, according to Song Yan's understanding of ghosts, the judgment is similar to Zhou Qingqing, and the target strength should be in the middle stream.
Ghosts that are too weak can't stand to make people disappear directly, ghosts that are too strong won't be trapped in one place, as long as they have a little IQ, they will run away, and staying in Shangjing is not looking for death?
Even if their operation is not successful this time, there will be more powerful martial artists to make a move, if the six doors don't work, they will find the Shenwu Hall, and if the Shenwu Hall is not good, they will ask the grandmasters of each family to take action, and they can still make the ghosts stumped?
And seeing Zhou Qingqing, Song Yan couldn't help but think of Qi Mushi, another female catcher, who had never appeared since Qin Ning disappeared.
Qi Mushi should have returned to Shangjing a few days earlier than them, but she never came to find Song Yan, so Song Yan ignored her.
Anyway, if you really want to find traces of the Xianyin Sect from the four princes, Song Yan can take action on his own, and he doesn't need Qi Mushi's help at all, he is the real protagonist in this matter.
And these two female catchers still look a little festive...... Of course, this has nothing to do with Song Yan, not to mention that the two are just competing at work, even if it is the hatred of taking the husband, it does not prevent them from making friends.
Retracting his thoughts, Song Yan also nodded and said, "No problem, who else are you waiting for?"
He looked behind Zhou Qingqing, there were three six-door catchers accompanying him, following behind early in the morning, obviously Zhou Qingqing was ready early in the morning, could it be that he got some new information from Li Yuanwai?
Zhou Qingqing's expression was a little strange, and finally he said helplessly: "It's not our person, it's Li Yuanwai who invited another exorcist, hoping to go in with us." ”
Song Yan and Monk Jinggen glanced at each other, and the latter continued Amitabha: "I see, many people have more strength, so just wait." ”
Exorcist is not a type of practitioner, but a profession, which generally refers to people who deal with evil spirits and monsters full-time, and most of them are practitioners of Buddhism and Taoism.
Most of the six doors are martial arts cultivators, and there may not be an exorcist who is professional in dealing with these things, so capable employers in the private sector often ask an additional exorcist to assist.
Strictly speaking, this is a sign of not trusting the six doors, but because the six doors have indeed been slapped in the face by the people before, Zhou Qingqing didn't have much to say at this time.
Only a moment later, a figure appeared from behind, and hurried to the front of everyone, but it was a petite and strangely dressed girl.
said that she dressed strangely because this person was dressed neither like a traditional Taoist nor a pure Jianghu person. It looks like a modified style of wearing a Taoist robe, and it has been simplified a little to become tighter, which is also convenient for traveling in the mountains and forests.
"No, I'm sorry! I'm late......" The girl ran so much that fine sweat broke out on her forehead, and she apologized again and again when she came to everyone, looking like a rookie no matter how she looked.
Zhou Qingqing was not surprised, and introduced the identities of himself and others, which was regarded as a greeting, and the girl also began to introduce herself.
"My name is Fang Xuan, and I am an exorcist now, please give me a lot of advice!" Fang Xuan said, saluting everyone in turn.
When he knew that Song Yan and Monk Jinggen were from the Great Guangming Temple, Fang Xuan couldn't help but be a little stunned - would the people from the Great Guangming Temple come to Beijing to meddle in such a small case? These two people are not liars, right......
Although it is now a prosperous era of martial arts, the two behemoths of the Great Guangming Temple and the Taiqing Taoist Sect have no low reputation in the world, and the disciples are also full of force when they walk in the world, and there are few times when they interfere in the world.
So in the surprised gaze of the exorcist Fang Xuan, the group slowly walked into the house, the gate, the entrance, and the corridor were all calm, and when they walked out of the corridor and stepped into the backyard, everyone felt abnormal.
It's dark.
